TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet. Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, this appliance must be properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD The refrigerator should always be plugged into its own individual properly grounded electrical outlet rated for 230 Volts, 50 Hz, AC only, and fused at 15 amperes. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. Use a receptacle which cannot be turned off with a switch or pull chain. Do not use an extension cord. NOTE: Before performing any type of installation, cleaning,or removing a light bulb, turn the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer Control, depending on the model)to OFF and then disconnect the refrigerator from the electrical source. When you are finished,reconnect the refrigerator to the electrical source and reset the control (Thermostat, Refrigerator Control or Freezer Control, depending on the model) to the desired setting. WARNING • Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either the plug or connector end. • When moving your refrigerator away from the wall, be careful not to roll over or damage the power cord. • Keep fingers out of pinch point areas; clearances between the doors and cabinet are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when children are in the area. • This refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the Attention Installer Instructions that were taped to the front of the refrigerator. • Don’t touch the lamp, in case of light on the long time, Because it can be very hot. • DO NOT refreeze frozen foods which have thawed completely. The United States Department of Agriculture in Home and Garden Bulletin No. 69 says: …You may safely refreeze frozen foods that have thawed if they still contain ice crystals or if they are still cold—below 4°C. …Thawed ground meats, poultry or fish that have any off-odor or off-color should not be refrozen and should not be eaten. Thawed ice cream should be discarded. If the odor or color of any food is poor or questionable, get rid of it. The food may be dangerous to eat. Even partial thawing and refreezing reduces the eating quality of foods, particularly fruits, vegetables and prepared foods. The eating quality of red meats is affected less than that of many other foods. Use refrozen foods as soon as possible to save as much of their quality as you can.

You may have to exert slight pressure on doors to get them to close completely. 19 USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature as desired. • Freezer control: –21°C to –13°C When the setting is at a lower number, the freezer compartment becomes colder. But the refrigerator compartment becomes warmer because less cold air flows into the refrigerator. MULTI-FLOW • Fridge control: 1°C to 8°C The lower the number setting, the colder the refrigerator compartment will become. In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in the illustration below, air enters at top of freezer and circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air is forced up to top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top vent, then circulates and exists at bottom, where it returns to freezer. • Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling operation. This is especially noticeable when new food is placed in the refrigerator compartment. • Express Freeze: Press the Express Freeze key and the LED will turn on. This function will remain activated for 24 hours and intensify the cooling speed of freezer and increase the amount of ice. • If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS FOOD STORAGE GUIDE Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before making final adjustments. It is best to wait 24 hours before doing this. The mid-settings indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm. The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections). The higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control adjusts the cold air flow from the freezer to the refrigerator. Setting the freezer control to a lower temperature keeps more cold air in the Freezer compartment to make it colder. If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator. Then wait 24 hours before checking the freezer temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then adjust the freezer control. Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Always remember to wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Wrap or store food in the refrigerator in airtight and moisture-proof material unless otherwise noted. This prevents food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator. For dated products, check date code to ensure freshness. CONDITION/ REASON: RECOMMENDED ADJUSTMENT: ■ REFRIGERATOR section too warm – Door opened often – Large amount of food added – Room temperature very warm Set REFRIGERATOR control to next lower number, wait 24 hours, then re-check ■ FREEZER section too warm/ice not made fast enough – Door opened often – Large amount of food added – Very cold room temperature (can’t cycle often enough) – Heavy ice usage – Air vents blocked by items Set FREEZER control to next lower number, wait 24 hours, then re-check Move items out of airstream ■ REFRIGERATOR section too cold – Controls not set correctly for your conditions Set REFRIGERATOR control to next higher number, wait 24 hours, then re-check ■ FREEZER section too cold – Controls not set correctly for your conditions Set FREEZER control to next higher number, wait 24 hours, then re-check 21 Items How to Butter or margarine ❿ Keep opened butter in a covered dish or closed compartment.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR STORING FROZEN FOOD Freezing NOTE: For further information about preparing food for freezing or food storage times, check a freezer guide or a reliable cookbook. Your freezer will not quick-freeze any large quantity of food. Do not put more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs of food per cubic foot of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. Be careful to leave enough room at the front so the door can close tightly. Packaging Successful freezing depends on correct packaging. When you close and seal the package, it must not allow air or moisture in or out. If it does, you could have food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator and also dry out frozen food. Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (airtight and moisture-proof) and the storage temperature. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal. This simply means that moisture in the food and air inside the package have condensed, creating ice crystals. Packaging recommendations: • Rigid plastic containers with tight-fitting lids • Straight-sided canning/freezing jars • Heavy-duty aluminum foil NOTE: Allow hot foods to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then package and freeze. Cooling hot foods before freezing saves energy. • Plastic-coated paper • Non-permeable plastic wraps • Specified freezer-grade self-sealing plastic bags Follow package or container instructions for proper freezing methods. Do not use • Bread wrappers • Non-polyethylene plastic containers • Containers without tight lids • Wax paper or wax-coated freezer wrap • Thin, semi-permeable wrap w CAUTION : Do not keep beverage cans or plastic food containers in the freezer compartment. They may be break if they freezer. 22 USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR REFRIGERATOR SECTION CAUTION : Make sure that shelves are level from one side to the other. Failure to do so may result in the shelf falling or spilling food. REFRIGERATOR SHELVES The shelves in your refrigerator are adjustable to meet your individual storage needs. Your model may have glass or wire shelves. Sliding Out Shelves Storing similar food items together in your refrigerator and adjusting the shelves to fit different heights of items will make finding the exact item you want easier; it will also reduce the amount of time the refrigerator door is open, saving energy. • To slide the shelf out, carefully pull front of shelf toward you. You can slide glass shelves in and out of your refrigerator as follows. • To slide shelf in, push shelf in until it stops. IMPORTANT: Do not clean glass shelves with warm water when they are cold. Shelves may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. For your protection, glass shelves are made with tempered glass, which will shatter into small pebble-sized pieces. NOTE: Glass shelves are heavy. Use special care when removing them to avoid dropping them. Adjusting Shelves Remove shelves from the shipping position and replace shelves in the position you want. • To remove a shelf—Tilt up the front of the shelf in the direction of (1) and lift it in the direction of (2). Pull the shelf out. • To reinstall a shelf—Tilt the front of the shelf up and guide the shelf hooks into the slots at a desired height. Then lower the front of the shelf so that the hooks drop into the slots. 23 USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR CRISPER HUMIDITY CONTROL GLIDE‘N’SERVE You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crispers. Store vegetables or fruits requiring more or less humidity in separate crispers. Adjust the control to any setting between Vegetables and Fruits . • Fruits lets moist air out of the crisper for best storage of fruits. • Vegetables keeps moist air in the crisper for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables. The Glide‘N’Serve provides storage space with a variable temperature control that keeps the compartment colder than refrigerator. This drawer can be used for large party trays, deli items, or beverages. (but this drawer can't be used for vegetable.) Controls The control regulates the air temperature in the drawer. Set control level to Cold (print on surface) to provide normal refrigerator temperature. Use the Colder (print on surface) setting for meats or other deli items.

These can scratch or damage the material. CONDENSER COILS Remove Back cover. Use a vacuum cleaner with an extended attachment to clean condenser coils.Vacuum coils when dusty or dirty.Coils may need to be cleaned as often as every other month. Explosion Hazard Use non-flammable cleaner. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire. Both the refrigerator and freezer sections defrost automatically. However,clean both sections about once a month to prevent odors. Wipe up spills immediately. GENERAL CLEANING TIPS • Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power. • Remove all removable parts, such as shelves, crispers, etc. Refer to sections in Using Your Refrigerator for removal instructions. • Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water.Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. • Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly. • Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power. OUTSIDE Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps provide rust protection. Do not wax plastic parts. Wax painted metal surfaces at least twice a year using appliance wax (or auto paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft cloth. For products with a stainless steel exterior, use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. INSIDE WALLS (allow freezer to warm up so cloth won’t stick) To help remove odors, you can wash the inside of the refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm water. Mix 2 tablespoons baking soda to 1 quart of water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure the baking soda is completely dissolved so does it not scratch the surfaces of the refrigerator. CAUTION: While cleaning the inside, do not spray water. DOOR LINERS AND GASKETS Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches, or cleaners containing petroleum on plastic refrigerator parts. 27 CARE AND CLEANING POWER INTERRUPTIONS WHEN YOU MOVE 1. If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep all refrigerator doors closed to help foods stay cold and frozen. When you are moving your refrigerator to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move. 2. If the power will be out for more than 24 hours: 1. Remove all food from the refrigerator and pack all frozen food in dry ice. a) Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker. 2. Depending on your model, turn the thermostat control (refrigerator control) to OFF. See the Setting the Controls section. WHEN YOU GO ON VACATION If you choose to leave the refrigerator on while you are away, follow these steps to prepare your refrigerator before you leave. 3. Unplug the refrigerator. 4. Clean, wipe and dry thoroughly. 5. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well and tape them together so they don’t shift and rattle during the move. Refer to sections in Using your Refrigerator for removal instructions. 1. Use up any perishables and freeze other items. 2. Empty the ice bin. If you choose to turn the refrigerator off before you leave, follow these steps. 6. Depending on the model, raise the front of the refrigerator so it rolls more easily OR screw in the leveling legs all the way so they don’t scrape the floor. See the Door Closing section. 1. Remove all food from the refrigerator. 2. Depending on your model, set the thermostat control (refrigerator control) to OFF. See the Setting the Controls section. 7. Tape the doors shut and tape the power cord to the refrigerator cabinet. 3. Clean refrigerator, wipe it and dry well. 4. Tape rubber or wood blocks to the tops of both doors to prop them open far enough for air to get in. This stops odor and mold from building up. When you get to your new home, put everything back and refer to the Installing Your Refrigerator section for preparation instructions. 28 1_MFL37933573_Eng 2010.5.3 6:38 PM 페이지28 ABOUT THE AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER WHEN YOU SHOULD SET THE ICEMAKER POWER SWITCH TO O (OFF) w WARNING Personal Injury Hazard OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS • When the water supply will be shut off for several hours. • When the ice bucket is removed for more than a minute or two. • When the refrigerator will not be used for several days. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice. NORMAL SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR DO NOT insert your hands in to the Icemaker in operation. It may cause to injure you. Automatic Shut off Arm • The icemaker water valve will buzz as the icemaker fills with water. If the power switch is in the I (on) position, it will buzz even if it has not yet been hooked up to water. To stop the buzzing, move the power switch to O (off). NOTE: Keeping the power switch in the I (on) position before the water line is connected can damage the icemaker. • You will hear the sound of cubes dropping into the bin and water running in the pipes as the icemaker refills. Power Switch The icemaker will produce 12 cubes per cycle— approximately 90–130 cubes in a 24- hour period, depending on freezer compartment temperature, room temperature, number of door openings and other operating conditions. If the refrigerator is used before the water connection is made to the icemaker, set the power switch to O (off). When the refrigerator has been connected to the water supply, set the power switch to I (on). The icemaker will fill with water when it cools to freezing. A newly-installed refrigerator may take 12 to 24 hours to begin making ice cubes. Throw away the first few batches of ice to allow the water line to clear. Be sure nothing interferes with the sweep of the Automatic Shut off Arm. When the bin fills to the level of the Automatic Shut off Arm, the icemaker will stop producing ice. It is normal for several cubes to be stuck together. If ice is not used frequently, old ice cubes will become cloudy, taste stale, and shrink. PREPARING FOR VACATION Set the icemaker power switch to O (off) and shut off the water supply to the refrigerator. If the ambient temperature will drop below freezing, have a qualified servicer drain the water supply system to prevent serious property damage due to flooding from ruptured water lines or connections. 29 CONNECTING THE WATER LINE • Two 1/4″″ outer diameter compression nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves) to connect the copper tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve. • If your existing copper water line has a flared fitting at the end, you will need an adapter (available at plumbing supply stores) to connect the water line to the refrigerator OR you can cut off the flared fitting with a tube cutter and then use a compression fitting. • Shutoff valve to connect to the cold water line. The shutoff valve should have a water inlet with a minimum inside diameter of 5/32″ at the point of connection to the COLD WATER LINE. Saddle-type shutoff valves are included in many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type valve complies with your local plumbing codes. BEFORE YOU BEGIN This water line installation is not warranted by the refrigerator or icemaker manufacturer. Follow these instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water damage. Water hammer (water banging in the pipes) in house plumbing can cause damage to refrigerator parts and lead to water leakage or flooding. Call a qualified plumber to correct water hammer before installing the water supply line to the refrigerator. To prevent burns and product damage, do not hook up the water line to the hot water line. If you use your refrigerator before connecting the water line, make sure the icemaker power switch is in the O (off) position. Do not install the icemaker tubing in areas where temperatures fall below freezing. When using any electrical device (such as a power drill) during installation, be sure the device is double- insulated or grounded in a manner to prevent the hazard of electric shock, or is batterypowered. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. NOTE: Wear eye protection. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Install the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently used drinking water line. WHAT YOU WILL NEED • Copper Tubing, 1/4″ outer diameter to connect the refrigerator to the water supply. Be sure both ends of the tubing are cut square. To determine how much tubing you need: measure the distance from the water valve on the back of the refrigerator to the water supply pipe. Then add 8 feet (2.4 m). Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet [2.4 m] coiled into 3 turns of about 10″ [25 cm] diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation. • A cold water supply. The water pressure must be between 147-834 kPa on models without a water filter and between 280-834 kPa on models with a water filter. • Power drill. • 1/2″″ or adjustable wrench. • Straight- and Phillips-blade screwdriver. 1. SHUT OFF THE MAIN WATER SUPPLY Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on the line. 2. CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION Choose a location for the valve that is easily accessible. It is best to connect into the side of a vertical water pipe. When it is necessary to connect into a horizontal water pipe, make the connection to the top or side, rather than at the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the water pipe. 3. DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE Drill a 1/4″ hole in the water pipe (even if using a self-piercing valve) using a sharp bit. Remove any burrs resulting from drilling the hole in the pipe. Take care not to allow water to drain into the drill. Failure to drill a 1/4″ hole may result in reduced ice production or smaller cubes. 30 CONNECTING THE WATER LINE 7. CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE VALVE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED) Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for copper tubing onto the end of the tubing and connect it to the shutoff valve. Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve. Tighten the compression nut securely. 4. FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp. Pipe Clamp Saddle-Type Shutoff Valve Saddle-Type Shutoff Valve Vertical Cold Water Pipe Packing Nut NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber. Outlet Valve Ferrule (sleeve) NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves are illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts. Consult with your licensed plumber. 5. TIGHTEN THE PIPE CLAMP Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer begins to swell. NOTE: Do not overtighten or you may crush the tubing. 8. FLUSH OUT THE TUBING Turn the main water supply on and flush out the tubing until the water is clear. Shut the water off at the water valve after about one quart of water has been flushed through the tubing. Washer Pipe Clamp Compression Nut Inlet End Clamp Screw 6. ROUTE THE TUBING Route the tubing between the cold water line and the refrigerator. Route the tubing through a hole drilled in the wall or floor (behind the refrigerator or adjacent base cabinet) as close to the wall as possible. NOTE: Be sure there is sufficient extra tubing (about 8 feet coiled into 3 turns of about 10″ diameter) to allow the refrigerator to move out from the wall after installation. 31 CONNECTING THE WATER LINE 9. CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE REFRIGERATOR 10. TURN THE WATER ON AT THE SHUTOFF VALVE Removing and Replacing Valve Cover Tighten any connections that leak. Reattach the compressor compartment access cover. NOTE: • Before making the connection to the refrigerator, be sure the refrigerator power cord is not plugged into the wall outlet. 1. Remove the plastic flexible cap from the water valve. 2. Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the end of the tubing as shown. 3. lnsert the end of the copper tubing into the connection as far as possible. While holding the tubing, tighten the fitting. 11. PLUG IN THE REFRIGERATOR Arrange the coil of tubing so that it does not vibrate against the back of the refrigerator or against the wall. Push the refrigerator back to the wall. w CAUTION: Check to see if leaks occurs at water line connections. Tubing Clamp 1/4 " Tubing 12. START THE ICEMAKER Set the icemaker power switch to the ON position. The icemaker will not begin to operate until it reaches its operating temperature of –9°C or below. It will then begin operation automatically if the icemaker power switch is in the I (on) position. 1/4 " Compression Nut Ferrule (sleeve) Refrigerator Connection 32 20 34 MEMO 37
